PRACTICAL ELIMINATION OF IMAGINARY NUMBERS: SEVEN REPRODUCIBLE DISCRETE REPLACEMENTS

Open access0 citations

Abstract

This preprint shows that imaginary numbers are not necessary to describe seven basic physical and mathematical phenomena. Each replacement uses only integers, finite fractions, and discrete operations. The reproducible code is provided in the appendix. The results are real and verifiable.
